Ya know they say that Airplanes are inanimate objects...well we all know 
different.

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Oscar, Charlie, Thanks

My deepest sympathies to Oscar Z. We've never met, Oscar, other than sharing 
this list and a love of flying, but I send to you and your family my family's 
thoughts and prayers. 

I also am saddened to hear of Charlie Rubeck's passing. I talked to him a 
little at Brodhead 2005. He was going in for surgery the following week, but I

didn't hear after that how it went...just very sad to hear that he is gone. I 
purchased a set of his exquisite wing ribs at Brodhead 2004...I will send up a

prayer of thanks for Charlie -- especially when "his wings" lift my Piet for 
the first time. We all fly on the wings of heroes like Charlie who have gone 
before.

Last but not least, many thanks to everyone on this list for your invaluable 
wisdom and advice. When our various Piets fly, I think it can be said that it 
is certainly a team effort.

Best regards to all,
Fred B.
